Daily Nature Log
The sun was shining beautifully for today’s 2.3-mile walk, though the moderate breeze dropped the ‘feels like’ temperature significantly.
Near the cricket field, a blackbird showed visible annoyance before retreating to a nearby shrub, while a group of twelve rooks foraged on the grass.
The cemetery was filled with the lovely murmur of rooks from the rookery above.
A particularly unusual highlight was photographing a single, solitary starling by the cemetery gates—a departure from their usual social groupings.
Today I walked 2.3 miles in 53 minutes, and Google Fit awarded me 25 heart points.
